If there is one thing I hate more than anything on this planet it is scammers. People who create things with the sole intent of taking from others deserve a special place in prison. I know you work way too hard for the money you have to have someone just come by and take from you so let’s protect it.

In the last year, we have seen rapid price appreciation of Crypto assets pretty much across the board. With the price increase, the number of scams seems to increase right along with it. In comes Kerberus Sentinel3 (formerly known as MintDefense). This is a piece of software that I have been using for the past several months and love having it running in the background to keep me safe from drainer sites. In this post, we discuss this product and whether or not you should have something like this.

Kerberus Security Review

What is Kerberus?

There are many ways to protect yourself and your crypto. Frist, you could keep everything in cold storage and never move it. Second, you can keep it on a centralized exchange (don’t do this look what happened with FTX). Or lastly, you can have a self-custody wallet and just pray that you don’t connect to a malicious site.

All these options sound horrible. If you are on the more adventurous side of crypto, you need something like Kerberus working in the background to help you stay away from sites that are aiming to take from you.

Kerberus Sentinel3 is a Chrome web extension that acts much like an antivirus. It is the leading Web3 security extension chosen by security experts (like BeauSecurity) that protects you from scams, phishing attacks, and hacks. No added knowledge about cybersecurity is needed when downloading this software, just install it right from the chrome store, pay for the subscription, and it will run automatically.

My Experience Using Kerberus (Formerly Mint Defense)

I have been subscribed to Kerberus for 5 months now. I have been spending the majority my time and energy on a new network in the crypto space called Blast. Blast has seen its fair share of scams along the way and I most notably was able to avoid one of the very early ones that happened with a project called Munchibles because of this software.

When the extension notices that a site has malicious code, it signals it to users before allowing you to connect and I love that. I plan on using this software for the rest of my time in crypto. I have way too much to lose to just not keep myself protected. Plus, it costs me the equivalent of two Starbucks runs A MONTH… it was a no-brainer when I saw that something like this existed.

Founders of Kerberus Sentinel3 (MintDefense)

Danor and Alex met in the Neo Tokyo NFT community in 2021, where hundreds of members lost their assets to drainers. Tormented by the losses and the lack of scam detection solutions, they took matters into their own hands and created Sentinel3, the most advanced security solution to detect drainer sites in real time.

Danor alone has over 15 years of experience in the field of security.

Key features and Highlights

  1. World Class Detection: Detected every scam site since 01/2023

  2. Automatic Protection: Only web3 solution that we know of that operates much like an antivirus. Does all the work for you once you have a paid plan and requires no extra knowledge to operate

  3. Social Sheild: Automatically flags malicious Twitter accounts on your feed and prevents you from interacting with them

  4. Emergency Alerts: Can set up live alerts for crypto security

  5. On-Chain Monitoring: Monitors the safety of your assets 24/7

  6. On-Screen Alerts: When connecting to a new site, if the software notices something is off with the site you are about to connect to it will warn you

  7. Costs $10/month to keep your assets safe (a no-brainer for those that have significant amounts of money in hot wallets)

Pro Tip: I combine this software with the Chrome extension with Revoke Cash just for an added layer of security. I would rather be safe than sorry so I take this very seriously.

Pros

  • Affordable

  • Easy to use and runs in the background

  • In my time using the software never had any issues or any scams happen. Sometimes it will mislabel sites that I know are not scams but that may have been a bug.

  • Allows you to block/add websites that can be accessed

Cons

  • It can slow down your laptop at times which can get annoying. Lately have been having issues with load speeds when combining Brave Browser and Kerberus (MintDefense)

Commonly Asked Questions

Will Kerberus Sentinel slow you down?

From my experience, Kerberus has definitely slowed down my time to connecting to websites. This, in my opinion, is a tiny price to pay to protect what I have been building fro the past 7 years.

Can my crypto/NFTs be moved by Kerberus?

No. It can’t control your wallet and doesn’t have access to your seed phrase or private keys.

Who is this for?

Anyone who is looking to protect their crypto and dabbles more in the space should have this protecting their assets. This software is probably more for crypto-natives or people who have a growing interest in the space and want to explore what it really has to offer.
